'14 GA DT Chris Williams

according to OrangeHammer who said he talked to Williams via text. also according to the email that c2p sent to Ron Swanson. also with PFort saying we wouldnt accept Williams commit. also with PFort and Hubbs saying that guys like Ford and Williams and Humphreys might not be takes because they are lower on our board

One solid post and I'm sold. Forgive my ignorance, I'm now optimistic l
 
Jus realized I got my 600th "like". Thanks VolNation! For caring about what I have to say almost 1/2 of the time!

Well technically they only care about 1/10 of the time probably. If like me you have been liked for one post multiple times and then fire off many and then....crickets.
 
Makes me feel like lambert is on board and the preference is to finish with Barnett, Mosley and Hendrix. Then leave spot for another big time guy or flip someone
 
They better have Barnett, Lambert, Mosley, and Hendrix lined up as silents then.


Or what? You take your ball and go home? Hold your breath? Throw a tantrum?


DT is pretty much the last position we need to fill. We have enough spots left to put them in in this class. The coaches apparently have recruits that they like better than the ones mentioned.

It's August.......lighten up Francis. We'll get the DT's that our coaches want......regardless of how any single one of us fans feel about it.

I could screenshot our text conversation but trust me on this. He text me about 10 min ago and basically said what I said earlier, but started off with "So I guess by now you've heard that I committed to Ole Miss." Then he went on to explain. Kids very sincere, and has a good head on his shoulders. We will def see some changes as the season goes along, and this kid is one I hope ends up here in the 865.

Email it to Ron for confirmation. He is a man of his word.

Quiet down biker. Enough losing for UT, better finish up this #1 recruiting class with DL.
 
i dont get it. y'all can sit here and say we turned williams down all day.

at this point you take anyone at top or near top or even middle of board who can help on dl.

its a bit ridiculous how much we struggle and have struggled to recruit dl for years now

Brent Hubbs said we passed on Williams. It isn't a made up rumor. We also passed on Ford and apparently Humphreys. Fortenberry and Hubbs have said so and those guys don't make up stories.

According to who? Some poster who claimed to talk to Chris Williams? Idk if we can trust that. Just last week we had someone saying Dyer was coming to TN, and look how that turned out. Oh wait, that was me

But I do talk to Chris Williams :thumbsup:.

I'm going to let this play out. Seems much more reliable than C2P and his minions, but that isn't saying much.

Remember, that is what a recruit told me. Chris has never given me a reason to think otherwise when he has shared information with me. I believe everything that he has said to me.

If I need to I will???

This pretty much goes hand in hand with what Chris told me but he didn't say we passed, he told me "the spots filled up." Those are two different scenarios, one making it easier to sleep at night.

ok, i like the positivity. ill take yer word fer it.

lol, it does seem as tho we struggle on dl
 
ill take barnett and mosley as realistic possibilities. but, we coulda used williams.

hendrix may well be a vol, but hes a de. as is henderson
 
Here is our defensive class so far:

Gaulden 4*
Payne 4*
McDowell 4*
Kelly 4*
Bryant 4*
Bates 4*
Weatherd 4*
Mouhon 4*
Henderson 4*

We will probably finish with:

Lambert 4*
Barnett 4*
Hendrix 4*
Mosley 4*
Humphreys 4*

All either 4* on Rivals or 247, all should finish as composite 4*.

I don't think we are neglecting defense.
Great post.Anyway,it's very early
 
Brent Hubbs said we passed on Williams. It isn't a made up rumor. We also passed on Ford and apparently Humphreys. Fortenberry and Hubbs have said so and those guys don't make up stories.

Also looks like we passed on Cory Thomas. Landing Mosley, Henderson, Hendrix, Barnett, and Lambert would be a very good DL haul. IF we get them still remains to be seen. Ford, Williams, and Humphreys were sure takes 2 weeks ago. I hope it all works out. All 3 DTs who look to be our last shots for this class, also like other teams.
 
Not what I want at all. Just looks to be possibly playing out that way. Would I take Chris Williams or Connor Humphreys today and forget all about Josh Malone or another WR/CB? Damn skippy I would.

Sorry, I couldn't contain myself from attempting a joke. Just seemed to be the theme in all the threads about the DTs.
